Attempted Ashy coloured hair

Yesterday I coloured my hair an ashy brown colour. I chose a light ash blonde colour as I wanted to achieve an ash brown result because I have natural black hair.

Above is the stuff I used: creme colour, 30 Vol - 9% peroxide, mixing bowl and brush and gloves.

I mixed my creme colour and peroxide in a 1:1 ratio.

Above: Before

Above: Results...in sunlight it seems to of resulted in an auburn colour as I can see a golden redness to it. 

Above: Taken without sunlight....looks light an medium brown to an ashy brown colour.

I think the colour is a bit golden and dark so I might re-attempt the same colour until I achieve the result I want...also I will put a toner through to wash out any golden tinge to achieve the ash effect I want. But I'm going to treat my hair first...don't want to overdo my hair and frizzle it.

Also...thank you Maki for the Lovely Blog Award ^^

Schwarzkopf Perfect Mousse Hair Dye

Hello

Today I felt like dying my hair. I bought the Schwarzkopf Perfect Mousse Hair Dye in Chocolate Brown. I think this is the first mousse hair dye on the western market. I know in Japan there is 2 brands that make mousse hair dye. I paid $13AUD for this...the store I went to had a introductory promotion, normally it should be around $16-18

Sorry...image won't upload properly =(

It's a pump pack...So just add the colour gel (black bottle) to the large developing bottle and invert (DON'T SHAKE)

Pump out some product onto gloved hands

Distribute into hair and Repeat

This is my hair before the dye. I haven't dyed my hair in over a year so my roots are really long. eww. lol. So I've included my tips in the picture - I use to always have a light brown coppery colour to my hair. But it killed my hair =(

Thick moussey hair

Hair After - My ends have darkened. So I'm quite disappointed with the end colour results. Definitely not close to the pack colour

Pros: Easy to distribute through the hair

The conditioner that comes with it is good for 2 or 3 uses - depending on hair length

Also the conditioner is quite good - moisturised my hair and smelt pleasant

Easy to find - most pharmacies and supermarkets

No Ammonia

Cons: Did not come out like box colour

Limited colour selction

I don't think I'd re-purchase

I think in 2 weeks I'll re-dye my hair but with professional products because I already have the mixing bowl
